Reset the bluetooth?
-
Ghost unknown devices keep saving, as well as my Bluetooth mouse (generic). So I am having trouble connecting my usual keyboard and mouse combo and it seems to be getting clogged by a bunch of unknowns and what appear to be copies of the mouse connection. Would have been unusable in desktop had it not been for a backup keyboard that showed up. Any way to freshen up the bluetooth to start it over? I'll take terminal commands, thanks!

@totalrando You can remove unworking bluetooth devices pairings.
Open the terminal, type bluetoothctl, than type remove (mac address).
Than you can make a fresh new pairing of your devices in the usual way. -
@stanwood thanks

I had a few devices that had the "forget this device" greyed out, and they would auto-connect (without actually connecting) so I couldn't remove them to try and correctly add them, this way I got them cleared out. Thanks again!
